The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report and letter from Frederick Charles Frank, on a paper 'Dielectric loss in simple alkyd, resins' by D R Pelmore and E L Simons

Reference number: RR/67/334

Date: 10 April 1940

Description

Sectional committee: Chemistry

Recommended for publication in Proceedings. The lack of figure five is a 'regrettable defect' in the paper and it should be restored, if possible. He doesn't find anything of military interest to the enemy in the paper.

Letter (dated 17 April 1940) thanks the Royal Society for sending the missing figure five. It's restoration is satisfactory and the paper should be published without hesitation.

[Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society A, 1940].

Endorsed on verso as received 2 April 1940.
